Olympics 2020, Bronze and Silver on the Road

Omer Shapira (Israel) and Anna Plichta (Poland) may have lost the wheel of the Austrian, Anna Kisenhofer, but they still were a minute or two ahead of the peloton with just six kilometers left to race.  Should they be able to stay away, they will be fighting for Silver and Bronze medals between them.  That is a big IF however.  

Alas, they were caught finishing 24th and 27th respectfully.  Yet, everyone knows that they were at the Olympics and were very competitive on the road.  After all, they weren't caught until inside of the final two kilometers of the day.

Olympics 2020, Trying to Stay Cool

This foursome off the front of the peloton by over five kilometers was doing everything they could to stay cool in the 95 degree heat.  Anna Plichta (Poland) pour her water over her neck and back, while Omer Shapira (Israel) reached for bottles from her team car.  Both Anna Kiesenhofer (Austria) and Ashliegh Moolman (South Africa)  made to with open jerseys and pedaling on towards a dream of an Olympic medal.  My wife was very found of this painting.  As she put it, you could see the feminity of the rider, leaving now doubt about which Olympic road race this was.

Olympics 2020, Snagging Her Lunch

With another 97 kilometers still to race, it was important to keep eating.  The heat made it that much more so, although the cold can make a rider burn even more calories in a race.  Anna Plichta (Poland) reached out to grab her musette full of tasty goodies from her soigneur as behind, Anna Kisenhofer (Austria) had to swerve to miss her.  Or it may have been that with a bottle in her hand and almost a hundred kilometers in her legs, Kisenhofer wasn't as alert as she should have been in the feed zone.  Still, no harm - no foul.
